Tables Must lie Chanced.
Beplnnlnff July 14. the Oregon Elec

on 'service on the system, two of which

end six on the Forest Grove division.
When the new service has been In
augurated, passengers to Salem will have
the choice of ton trains going and the
fame numher returning. There will then
bo nine trains each way to Forest Grove.
The addition of the new trains will
ruake necessary almost a complete revi
sion of tho time-tables on the Forest
Grove line and a change in the time of
arriving in and leaving Portland on all
but six of the Salem trains.
The running time of the Knse City Lim
ited and the Capital City Flyer is to be
reduced five minutes, and a much later
train service than heretofore given will
be provided on both divisions.
On each division a "theater" train is to
be ono of the new ones. This will leave
I'ortland for Salem at U P. M.. and for
Forest Grove at 11:15 I. M. At present
the latest S;dem train leaves Portland
fit 8:40 and the latest Forest Grove train
at 6:0 P. M. Passengers for Forest

"The decision to increase the train ser
vice on our system." said General Man
ager Talbot, of the Oregon Electric, yes
terday, "was brought about by the In
creased travel. We are anticipating
somewhat, however. In the number of
new trains added, but believe that a
more frequent train service will build
up the trafllc of the road."
MIIAVACKKIS SEUVICE IN MARCH
JJoad Announces Through Train
From I'ortland to Chicago.
Assurance is given at the local offices
of the Milwaukee system that when the
passenger service is Inaugurated on the
iew transcontinental system. Bolld Mil
waukee trains will be run from Portland
through to Chicago and between Portland
and Puget Sound points.
The passenger service on the new road
will not be put Into effect until next
-March, according to present plans of the
company, although through freight serv
ice has been established from Puget
Bound to Chicago and from Portland to
4 hlc-ago via the O. R. & N. and Milwau
kee. By March the roadbed of the new
system will be In first-class condition and
time will have been given for the assem
bling of the necessary equipment.
It is the Intention of the company to
put on crack trains and securing new
equipment Is a matter that takes time
The Milwaukee trains will run from
Portland over the O. K. & X. to Tekoa,
?u :V W re connect'"n will be made
with the main line of the Chicago Mil
waukee & Puget Sound transcontinental
system. The Milwaukee gets a share in
the Portland-Puget Sound traffic by vir
tue of the Harriman-Hill agreement or
purchase, which provides for the double
tracking of the present Northern Pacific
line between Portland and Seattle and
the participation in traffic over that line
by the Harriman system. The statement
of the intention of the Milwaukee to op
erate trains also between Portland and
ruget Sound is taken as an Indication
that the Rockefeller system is also In
terested in the purchase of the Northern
I aclfic Portland-Seattle line, which is
row generally believed to the real out
come of the Harrlman-Hill negotiations.

When Officer Conies, Mrs. Preston
Smith Accompanies Him in His
Search Through Basement,
A burglar alarm reached the police
station last night from the residence of
Mrs. Preston Smith, 341 Eleventh
street. Sergeant Keller was sent in
haste to the scene. . He found Mrs.
Smith seated in the dark at the foot of
the hall stairs with a revolver In her
hands, watching the door leading; down
into the basement.
"He'd never been able to get beyond
that door alive," said Mrs. Smith. "I
am a Southern woman and learned to
shoot."
The sergeant made a. search of the
basement, and the courageous woman
followed right at his heels, revolver in
hand, ready to be of assistance to him
in case a man were discovered there.
The officer found where some night-
prowler had forced open the basement
windows, but had evidently fled imme
diately. The opening of the window
had knocked some bottles down on the
cement floor, breaking them and mak
ing a noise which aroused the house.
JAP'S ACTIONS STARTLE
Rushes Into Laundry and Tries to
Carry Ofr Girl Employe.
HOOD RIVER. Or.. July 10. (Spe
cial.) Excitement and confusion were
created at the establishment of the
Hood River Laundry Company this
morning when a Japanese rushed in
and attempted to drag Miss Mamie
Wood, one of the employes, from the
building:.
The screams of the girl brought her
companions to her assistance, one of
whom telephoned the marshal, who ar
rested the Intruder. It is thought that
the Japanese, who can give no explan
ation of his behavior, is insane. He
will be taken before the County Court
Monday and examined as to his mental
condition.
It is stated by the marshal that sev
eral complaints have been made to him
recently of an attempt by a Japanese
to force his attentions on young girls,
but that he has been unable to locate
him.

Multum in Parvo.
The Weston Leader, in this editorial
takes a whack at Senator Bourne, at the
corporation tax, and at a very little es
teemed and perhaps loathsome contempo
rary; and at the same time It commends
itself. Two birds with one stone! Here
is a whole bevy of birds brought down at
once, to wit:
Jonathan Bourne. Jr.. delivered his mulflpn
speech the oth-er day In th United States
Senate, supporting- the proposed amendment
10 '.no xarm diu providing tor & 2 per cent
tax on the net earnings of cornoriilirini
It was a long- speech and was described
as a strong ona by the "Washington Herald,
which published it in full. Senator Bourne
nas mougniiuuy aeni tne Leader a clipping-
from tho Herald recognizing, nirham.
the importance and valuo of the Leader's
support In hia contention. We will warrant
that tte Athena Fress was overlooked like
a spoiled cayuse in a ouncn or tnorough
brls.
This recognition pleases the Leader's van
ity, but it cannot Indorse the views of Sen
ator Bourne. It sees no reason whv on mi

than that a particular Individual or firm of
individuals should pay an .sxtra tax, for the

Newberg Graphic.
One of the convicts pardoned by Gov
ernor Chamberlain just before he re
signed to become United States Senator
filled up on booze at lone the other day
and proceeded to do the bad man act by
hooting up the town, wounding five men
and holding the officers at bay for sev
eral hours with a shotgun. This Incident
recalls the fact that when Chamberlain
spoke to an audience in Duncan's hall In
Newberg when he was campaigning, he
was so pathetic in his answer to charges
that he was using the pardoning power
too freely on murderers and hardened
criminals, that several "sniffles" were
heard In the audience and handkerchiefs
were required to wipe away the burning
tears. Some people are easy exceedingly
easy.
WAS DISMISSED BY LANE
Trouble Over Brooklyn Sewer In
spection Seems Near End. and
Discharged Inspectors May
Yet Be Taken Back.
The Civil Service Commission yesterday
morning reinstated to duty Jeses Hannam,
assistant city engineer, who was dis
missed by order of ex-Mayor Lane's Ex
ecutive Board two weeks ago for alleged
inattention to work in the big Brooklyn
sewer. He is thus exonerated, and it is
generally believed that former Inspectors
LTimp, w right and Gurr. aleo discharged
by the Lane regime, will be put back
after their appeals are heard.
Mr. Hannam was the engineer In charge
of the Brooklyn sewer, and his dismissal
by the former administration came about
because Mayor Lane and members of the
sewer committee of the Executive Board
at that time declared that he had been
grossly negligent in the discharge of his
duties, having permitted the contractors
on the job to proceed in violation of the
plain terms of the specifications. The
specific count was that he allowed the
laying of belgian blocks on a foundation
without concrete base, which was called
for In the specifications, and that as a
result water seeps in, endangering the
sewer.
That the new administration officials
take little stock in the charges regarding
tne sewer seems evident from the action
of the Civil Service Commission in rein
stating Hannam. As has previously been
published, it Is probable the whole trouble
over the sewer will soon be settled, and
the big conduit accepted and put into
operation. It will, be thoroughly inspect
ed tomorrow morning by the sewer com
mittee or the Executive Board, com
posed of Messrs. Smith. Brown and
Campbell, appointees of Mayor Simon.
Jx-Aiayor Lane and Messrs. Esterly and
Smith, comprising the old sewer commit.
tea, were called as witnesses, and all ex
pressed the opinion that the sewer Is
built poorly In some places, and that the
specifications were not followed as to the
laying or the foundation. All swore that
the discharge of Mr. Hannam was not
because of any religious or political rea
son. The investigation brought together
the old and new Mayors, and Dr. Lane,
who was seated just back of Mayor
Simon, was given a decided surprise by
the Mayor, who was presiding. Assist
ant City Attorney Tomlinson had just
asked Dr. Lane aa to the motives for the
discharge, and Dr. Lane replied that
there was no political or religious reason.
"You haven't any politics, have you,
doctor?" queried ilayor Sunon, turning
to face Dr. Lane.
"Why, yes, Joseph. I have some poli
tics," haughtily replied the ex-Mayor, aa
he arose and walked around.
"Well. I just wanted to know, that's
all," said Mayor Simon, and the incident
was supposed to bo closed, when Mrs. M.
L. Woodcock lifted her voice to the de
fense of Dr. Lane.
"Dr. Lane's administration was all right
for the big taxpayers," said Mrs. Wood
cock In loud tones.
"You had ' best not be much In evi
dence," said Mayor Simon, as he turned
In surprise to face Dr. Lane's defender.
"Well. I ll settle the politics question,"
continued the redoubtable Mrs. Wood
cock, whereupon Mayor Simon assured
her that he would have her escorted from
the room If she persisted in talking fur
ther, and she subsiced.
After hearing a statement from Mr.
Hannam, the Mayor announced that the
case would be taken under advisement,
and it was supposed it would be some
ti-.ne before u decision was reached, but
the commissioners held a brief private
session, aftsr which the Mayor eaid that
the accused man had been ordered reinstated.

A BEEFSTEAK PROBLEM
Allegation That Forest Reserve Rul
ing; Hurts Cattlemen.
PRINEVILLE. Or., July 8. (To the
Editor.) We have before us the beef
steak proposition, which will be some
thing; of a serious nature soon to all
the people of this country.
We are now facing a forest reserve
law or ruling which forces us to herd
our cattle off certain boundaries al
lotted to sheep, and in most cases this
range Is where cattle are used to graz
ing. The ruling makes it almost im
possible to keep them off, consequent
ly every cow-man you meet is mak
ing long strides to quit the business
selling everything that is dry from
yearlings up, and some breeders are
not breeding at all this season. If it
is as bad as this around all forest re
serves it will not be long until beef
steak will be sold at excessive prices.
Cattle will not stand herding and get
fat. If the United States Government
would fence the reserve, and then
cross-fence between cattle and sheep,
cattle could still be run.
There are instances where sheep-men
have many sections of road land and
timber claims leased Inside of large
areas of reserve territory, where there
is comparatively little Government
land. The Forest Reserve Service helps
them to make the cow-man herd his
cattle off the deeded land. This gives
on manvP"ma.? ""'eminent "Protec o"
